Overview
The MX7 desktop cradle restrains the MX7, re-charges batteries, and enables serial, audio or USB communication with a PC,
scanner, printer or other peripheral device. MX7 keypad data entries can be mixed with cradle-tethered scanner bar code data
entries while the MX7 is in a powered cradle. Bluetooth device connection and use, while the MX7 is docked, are managed by
the MX7 Bluetooth program, not the cradle.
Using a wall AC adapter the desktop cradle can also recharge a spare MX7 battery in approximately 4 hours. The MX7 battery
recharging is managed by the docked MX7 power management configuration. The MX7 can be either On or in Suspend Mode
while in the cradle. Special purpose and power cables are available from Honeywell.
Wireless host/client communications can occur whether the cradle is receiving external power or not as wireless functions
draw power from the main battery in the MX7.
The MX7 cradle is not certified for use in Hazardous Locations.
